First time I witnessed Rapa Nui dancing up close or watch any was from the FestPac in Hawaii last month. I completely fell in love with these people. They are beautiful and they are very very proud of their culture, island and dancing. I have watched about a hundred Rapa Nui shows on RU-vid since June 10th and 11th I feel like I'm expert in how they dance and can distinguish their style easily now. Hawaii was like the Rapa Nui coming out party with their huge contingent and beautiful performances. Hawaii is the most perfect place for FestPac ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Sigo admirando a estos jovenes nativos que nos dan a conocer su cultura a traves de sus danzas y cantos. Muy bonita ceremonia de respeto para sus autoridades invitadas vestidos de civiles. Felicidades y muchas gracias por compartir.
@@antonz9614 At some stage in the past, there was major warfare over dwindling resources, to the point that the survivors lived in poverty grubbing whatever existence they could. Then came the European slavers from Chile and the like.
@@davidtapp3950 The "Slavers" were from Perú, actually when Chile came the Island it was already in a miserable state and the Rapa Nui authorities accepted to become part of Chile
A Part of my Family Originally Migrated to Rapa Nui to Hawaii LOOONG ago. Some of our males bare the first name Raphael and the last three letters of our last name is Nui Rapha Nui. Our roots forever
@@Natalia-ep5vq Los isleños hablan mal de Chile cada vez que salen de Chile, auspiciados por los impuestos que todos ustedes pagan. No se consideran chilenos y los chilenos que viven en el continente no pueden tener tierras en la isla, ademas reciben privilegios que el resto de chilenos no tiene, como becas universitarias o subsidios para comprar y construir viviendas por montos mayores que los demás chilenos, a mi me parece discriminación y una injusticia... en fin...
Vejo semelhança com o povo indígena do Brasil. Merecem nosso aplauso, e que possa preservar a cultura, porque é simplesmente bonita. Que as pessoas possam valorizar essa cultura e outras como as do Brasil, que já estavam por aqui antes do homem branco.
@@paulaandreamendezponce3002 Lo siento no te va a responder por que seguramente eres chilena y como ya sabes, esta gente odia a los chilenos continentales. En el video se ve la bandera chilena puesto que viajaron a ese festival con gran parte (por no decir el 100%) de recursos públicos, pero a regañadientes tuvieron que portar la bandera.
@@kangarooaussie7945 muy linda Isla de Pascua , pero el balet fome las mujeres mas sin ritmo y los hombres descordinados no le pusieron corazon , a ellos no les gusta ser chilenos q lamentable
@@AmoBolivia66 I don't understand why people are so upset that a South American country like Chile owns Rapa Nui, just like the United States of Hawaii, as well as Chile is a country with the most arid desert in the world and with the proximity to the territory The coldest in the world, as is Antarctica, where there is even a villa, called Villa Las Estrellas. Is it so hard for you to believe it? or racism blinds them to see all that? As long as you're not in Europe or North America, you don't deserve it or what? It hurts whoever it hurts, that's Chile and bear with it!
I recently did my ancestry dna. Test and have many close relatives from Rapa Nui, as well as aotearoa, Tahiti, samoa, Tonga, Cook Islands etc most I knew I was kanaka maoli. It shows how gifted our people were at navigating the vast oceans from Rapa Nui, Hawaii and Aotearoa!
Eu sempre gostei muito da Polinésia e dos povos austronesios em geral, são tão incríveis, colonizaram até mesmo Madagascar. Viva os povos das ilhas !!! From 🇧🇷
respect for cultures is always something you should have like this show for example. In Brazil, men wear swimwear and women wear tiny thongs on the beaches and the whole world criticizes.
geovane diaz Que cultura han robado? Eres de los estúpidos apuesto que eres peruano o peruana porque el pendrive ridículo, repitido e ignorante se reconoce a lo lejos, Rapa Nui fue anexada y salvada por el gobierno chileno salvo su población de piratas ingleses, peruanos, portugueses y Holandeses
@@geovanediaz206 Te duele y dolerá por muchos años que les hallamos sacado la mier....y nos adueñamos de tu país por años,ahora envidioso,o envidiosa,tu nombre no se si eres hombre o mujer,pero como sea Rapa Nui es una de las tantas islas Chilenas, aunque te arda.
Tú ve el agrado de conocer la isla es hermosa y sus habitantes son maravillosos es una cultura qué respeta en todo su esplendor su isla Rapa Nui es hermosa ❤❤❤❤ ❤❤ 🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🇨🇱 es parte Chile con mucho orgullo

Lo mínimo que pudieron haber hecho, si viajaron con apoyo estatal. No creas que lo hicieron de buenas ganas, es sólo cosa de ver la manera en que manipulan la bandera como si fuera un trapo.
@@nanoventura8212 ¿Dónde afirmo que la gente Rapa Nui NO es chilena?. Sabes acaso que ellos son polinesicos antes que chilenos, y eso te lo dicen y dejan claro diariamente todos y cada uno de ellos. Parece que no comprendes el contexto que se vive en la isla y opinas desde el nacionalismo, y para vuestra información soy tan chileno como ellos mismos. Finalmente no he dicho que esta no sea chilena políticamente, pero cultural y arraigo absolutamente nada. Te aviso de inmediato que viví por 10 años ahí y sé perfectamente como son las cosas y si tú estuviste como turista no viste ni el 0.5% y sólo te mostraron lo que permiten ver al turista y que les deja plata. El resto es discurso
@@kangarooaussie7945 de todas maneras tienen más ADN chileno que nativo, es cosa de mirar a los bailarines y compararlos con otros polinesicos que son más morenos y rasgos asiáticos... Estos son chilenos tostados bailando
i appreciate the cultural aspect and all but to be honest i stayed for the guys... they are soooo hot i was hoping one of them will have a wardrobe malfunction hahahaaa...
I wish you would put together some documentary type videos of all races and competitions you have on the island. And explain exactly what’s going on . Like the bird man competition and the banana tree race and all the other ones.
They are chileans and polynesians, much people are mixed with continental chileans (called 'tire people') and tahitians, don't be fooled by some resentful separatist comments, many islanders feel chileans and have even formed a family with continentals and dances like tamuré and atarita are represented in shows during national holydays throghout the country in some "ramadas".
Vejo semelhança com os indígenas do Brasil, que a cultura deste povo e do povo indígena do Brasil possa viver e ser preservada. Porque já é extremamente linda, cultura de um povo não povo ser acabada, por outra que vem de outra cultura.
#Austronesian united... #guam #rapanui and the entire #austronesians from the pacific, southeast asia, and madagascar island, east africa... *WE ARE AUSTRONESIAN* Love, Philippines 🇵🇭♥️
I am from Cook Islands and Samoa - the movements are quite different to all the other Polynesian dancing is used to. Music and language is similar but routine isn’t as graceful
Beauty is in the beholder's eye. If it's graceful to the islanders whose culture it is, then that is all that matters......let everyone else have the grace to accept that diversity.
Hermosa es nuestra cultura Rapanui y llevan el nombre de chile muy alto y con mucho orgullo y nuestra bandera flameando,hermosa es la cultura chilena el baile rapanui es bello y la vez es muy sensual muy femino disfruten de nuestra cultura chilena
Jesus. M yo no vivo del pasado lo unico que se, es que rapanui es mi cultura es de chile y punto y para las fiesta patria de chile yo lo bailo muy sensual este baile...
@@jesus.m5820 jajaja que ridiculo resentido envidioso de seguro eres de estos paises limitrofes que viven pendientes de mi amado y querido pais chile. Que orgullo de ser chilenooo!!
Dicen que somos chilenos dicen esto dicen aquello se toman la libertad de querer decir eso como si les causará orgullo pero nunca se respeto el tratado de 1888 en donde chile toma posiciones causando violaciones golpes sometiendo a nuestro pueblo por parte de la armada, ya ha pasado tiempo ha pasado de todo hoy en dia aceptamos pero nunca seremos chilenos ni qe hayan venido los incas somos navegantes sabemos mas de lo que ustedes creen iorana
Go to the island and you will get to know them....most of these dancers are very known ... You can take pictures, dance and have a nice time with them in their cultural show ....

I take it that you’re not indigenous? Of course you will never under as you where never colonized! Owns? America was and is still colonized. Hawai’i Nei is still illegally annexed by the US government! And racism doesn’t go both ways. Nice try Karen🤡🤡🤡
Fall of civilisations podcast tells real story what happened to these islanders. They were taken away as slaves almost whole population, only 36 made it back.
For those who have doubts, they are chileans and polynesians, much people are mixed with continental chileans (called 'tire people') and tahitians, continental chileans loves Rapa Nui Island and Rapanui culture, in 'national holidays' rapanui dances like tamuré and atarita are part of the themes of that great national celebration with cueca, guaracha and other popular traditional music and cumbias (one of the most popular rythms in hispanic america, you will see in some point of time a Rapanui dances show in one that another "ramadas" (place of party and traditional food stalls, it's also done in Rapa Nui), and in most schools of the country, in music or dance classes, some students perform Rapanui dances at some point. Don't be fooled by some resentful separatist comments, many islanders feel chileans and have even formed a family with continentals, natives have right to schoolarship and there are special laws for the island.
They are very exotic and beautiful people. They have the Pacific Islander tradition but they look westernized. Bless Rapa Nui and keep preserving your culture. You are such a lovely people! Fight for your independence because you are who you are- unique peopl
Ve la bandera, es una isla que forma parte de Chile. Chile limita al norte con Peru, al Este con Argentina y al Oeste con el oceano pacifico. O sea un pais de Sudamerica, claro, claro.
